Maddox Jolie-Pitt is now 11-years-old and ready for speed! At least, according to his father, Brad Pitt, who splurged on a motorbike and mud pitt for his eldest son’s birthday.

A source told The Sun newspaper of Maddox’s birthday gift, “Brad’s always been a generous dad and as Maddox has shown a keen interest in bikes, he thought he may as well get him started.”

“He was down at the house the other week and got the builders to dig him a muddy trail all through the woods and around the lake,” they added, detailing just how elaborate the gift and set-up at the family home in France was. “Brad was just as excited as Maddox about it, though – he’s put in little jumps and puddles so they’ll get really muddy.”

Maddox, seen here talking on a cell phone next to sister Zahara, will hopefully be well protected on his Suzuki DRZ-125.

“The bike has an automatic clutch and, of course, Brad‘s bought him his own helmet and protective gear,” the source continued. “Brad took him into the garage and there the bike was with a bow on it. Maddox was over the moon and couldn’t wait to try it out. He was riding it around all day at the house, tearing up the lawn.”
